BECAUSE A GREAT ADVENTURE STARTS WITH A GOOD BOOK

Supporting small community libraries in the poorest places
Bringing books, computers, and internet access to communities that need them most

Our Mission

Above the Seas supports small community libraries in the developing world - the kind run by locals, for locals, in places where a book or internet access can genuinely change a life.

Our focus is village and slum libraries in the poorest places. We don't build new institutions; we support the ones that already exist, because real change is built by the communities themselves.

We are a small 501(c)(3) NGO. We keep overhead extremely low so that your donation goes directly to books, computers, and internet access for the libraries that need them most.

If you believe a library can change a life, please consider donating today.
